WAOPS Fall Conference | October 25-26, 2024
Madison Marriott West | Madison, Wisconsin
Thank you to our exhibitors.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the WAOPS 2024 Fall Conference, October 25-26, 2024! WAOPS continued to maintain their standard for excellent educational presentations given by a variety of speakers, highlighting topics such as mental health access and the laws, EKG readings, gender affirming care, and an OMT session. All attendees will earned valuable credits while immersing themselves in interactive discussions with fellow osteopathic physicians. Additionally, WAOPS held elections for their Board of Trustees and voted on bylaws updates.
We hope to see everyone again next Fall at the Ingleside Hotel, October 24-25, 2025!
